After defeating it, you automatically obtained it and his abilities too.

This battle actually tells us something cool, and that this isn’t really arceus, but a part of him that’s made to resemble a Pokémon, which makes more sense catching than the literal god of the universe

I love how Arceus doesn’t even acknowledge the battle after you win. This is just how Arceus shakes hands.

Arceus actually changing types during battle wasn't something i expected, but glad was an addition

Arceus is like "I saw those other fights, seems like fun" and then the wrath of heaven descends upon you

"How can Arceus lose to a 15 year old child?" This isn't a "I'm trying to kill you" fight, this is a "test of strength fight". Arceus is going easy on you

Having Arceus change to types effective against your pokemon was such a good game decision. Really makes Judgment an even scarier move.

I like how the arena you fight Arceus has the patterns that resemble the Mystri Stage in the old event in HGSS

I love how Arceus basically airdrops you a declaration of war

"Unflagging devotion to a goal shalt see it through..." He's absolutely right. When I first found out you had to catch every Pokémon to get him, I didn't even want to. I thought it would be too much of a hassle. But I tried anyways and didn't stop until I had him! Never felt so accomplished in a Pokémon game ever.

I love how the Azure flute's first note here is the same thing you'd hear in the title screen of the original Diamond and Pearl

Also love how arceus adapts to the type of Pokémon you send out what a incredible battle design

I love how threatening arceus feels here. It really feels like you are fighting god, no it feels like you are only fighting a fraction of his power that this is part of a larger deity who only choses this form to appear to others. I really would love even more lore on arceus

If you are playing this game, you would understand how hard it is to actually dodge all those skills lol it’s not that easy, he made it look so easy.

Just so you know, if you miss even a second of movement, you will be punished for it immediately . And you only get three mistakes. This battle is not as easy as this guy makes it look

an actual boss battle where you fight arceus without pokemon and you have to dodge his attacks?? this shit looks sick af

It took sixteen years, but we finally get to legitimately battle and catch God. And you know what, it's an amazing feeling.

This confirms it. Humans in Pokémon really are naturally absurdly strong and durable

This battle is so good. The terror you feel when it goes completely silent and then Arceus shatters through the void to rocket at you is everything.

I don't care what anyone says this was the best pokemon game. Getting something so out of the box and different than the usual beat the pokemon league and post game stuff was very much appreciated and I want this to be integrated in the future generations of pokemon

""I bestow my blessing"" ""and I bestow upon thee a part of myself"" As I understand it, it refers to the fact that we received the "Legend Plate" and the Arceus that we were fighting in it during the mission Does that mean that we basically never saw the true power of Arceus and that all combat was a fight against an Arceus with limited power?

I love that transition of the view passing in front of the trainer with Arceus just appearing from "nowhere". Just casually showing off his control of reality.

First mision: capture the starters Final mision: Defeat and capture god

This just seems like a perfect way to do Arceus lore. Keeping it straight to the point and makes sense from a story perspective. Catching a God just seems to be so ridiculous, and I always disliked that was something the mainline games never elaborate on besides mechanics. This game tries to make sense of it all by saying it's a fragment of Arceus. Makes me wonder if GameFreak probably wanted to give Arceus more than just catch him on Spear Pillar during gen 4 D&P.

Great job on this fight, you really optimized the strategy for the wave/meteor attack and made it look easy. For everyone watching, heads up… it’s not nearly as easy as this looks

Finally, a game focused on Arceus. GameFreak keeps Arceus for so long before they make a game about him. It makes me emotional!

“I bestow to thee part of myself” That means that it is indeed a fraction of his true (the form he appears in in Pokémon.)

After 16 years, we can finally see the Hall of Origins in a legittimated way.

I really love the sound design the echos and the fact that it feels like it’s in space

5:45 bro ursaluna was super confident and when he saw arceus his facial expression changed

That fact that the arceus fight and what leads up to it is basically a updated version of the unused dppt event for arceus. Just makes me so happy man. That event felt like the perfect way to finish the sinnoh games and the fact it was never release for no good reason just never sat right with me. And now this is the first ever legit arceus to not be level 100!

It only took about ten years but now we can finally legitimately fight and capture Arceus!!!

Volo and Giratina are challenging and all, but Arceus was on a whole other level for me. He gave me my first legitimate defeat in the game and many more afterwards. The rematch is even more brutal and I hope to see more stuff like these fights going forward

2:33 Arceus: THOU HAST IGNORETH THY TEXTS FOR TOO LONG, RESPOND OR FACE THY WRATH Protagonist: Yo God chill Arceus: *Equips Ice Plate*

I love this battle. It's so so difficult to survive, but it's also so consistent that you're able to form a strategy and a rhythm to get better each time you fail. The attacks are insane, but you're also able to form this really dangerous dance by attacking in between them for more efficient progress. You really feel helpless against the God of the game's universe, but the fight is designed fairly as well. That's a very tricky balance to strike, but it may be the most rewarding brutal boss I've taken on because of it.

This battle was legendary and hard asf. Didn't know you could zoom out like that. Everything had to be timed well and it just made the battle difficult but so rewarding to finally get Arceus

I noticed that Arceus also seems to change type depending on the opponent's moveset. Goodra has weaknesses against Fighting type but also Ground type. Arceus could have turn into that type but why did he choose to take the fighting type instead ? Because Goodra has Hydro Pump in his moveset but nothing against the fighting type. The same happened with Ursaluna, but this time, he was already in a type that would have been effective against him. Problem: Ursaluna has Play Rough in his moveset, so he took the grass type instead.

0:51 That is the face of finally witnessing a god stood before you. This is it. You are finally going to face your creator.

Everything about Legends Arceus is the stuff of dreams for me. The side quests, exploring the areas, the space distortions, the wisp etc. Tonight, I found my last few wisps, finished the Dex (tedious task but always worth it). I thought, phew, done it.

Love how they incorporate an unused DPPt event item onto this game. This make the patching out said event from BDSP make more sense, as GameFreak already ported it onto PLA as a post game content.

This has got to be one of the most fantastic things I’ve ever seen in a Pokémon game! They did really well with legends of arceus. Super impressed and looking forward to more Pokémon games of this style.

1:49 Down Below, the Shown Symbols are the Triangular Symmetric Places where all Legendary Pokemon Trio are gather. In the Middle, those are the places for Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, and God Himself

So it is true that drayden from Unova once said that in ancient times we fought pokemon with our bare hands....I see....

Here's a friendly reminder that every Arceus encounter in the franchise is against an insignificantly-small aspect of it whose mere physical presence shaped all of creation. If it decides that it wants you gone, there would be no game. It was going easy on you.

Thank you for posting this. I am absolutely terrible a the "balm throwing" aspects of this game and hate hate hate them. It's like part of this game was literally designed to play to my weaknesses and it's so frustrating. Seeing the "right" way to do things is incredibly helpful. Thank you again!

Is the pattern on the floor when you fight Arceus the same as the pattern in the Sinjoh Ruins cutscene?

0:27 The Azure Flute makes a triumphant return!

I love Arceus (the pokemon), this made me so happy, what a cool battle!

This might be the hardest boss battle in Pokemon theyve really learned from sun and moon

My player went from amazing a whole town by catching three pokemon in one day to personally defeating and befriending God in 55 hours. That's productivity!!

So in this game, we got two battle style. First, the classic turn-based battle with some unique adjustment, and the typical open-world game battle with hack'n'slash style

The way the music matches perfectly with arceus' movements in this battle is so awesome.

3:04 Imagine telling a kid from 2006 that this was the future battle with Arceus.

I’m so nervous and excited to fight Arceus once I completed his task that he gave us. It’s my first time fighting him.

When you realize that if Legend Arceus's arceus got in competitive with the legend plate, people would call that competitive build "Legend Arceus".

This is amazing!

The way it just _appears behind you_ like that.

This is exactly what I have imagined what an Arceus battle should be. Even the type changing animation... its as if they pull it right out of my head. Also the Legend Plate. I figured something like that would exist (I jusy havent figured out the appropriate name for it). Not to mention the coloured Judgement is something I've always wanted as a kid

This game comes out tomorrow and I was pretty excited for the Arceus fight and I must say it beat my expectations

Imagine how fun it would be to trow balls in the god itself while trying to dodge divine powers

Arceus: "I brought thee into this world, and I can take you out...." Player: "Return me to my original timeline?" Arceus: ..... Player: "Return me to my original timeline right?" **Gulp**

Arceus can change type mid-fight, that's so cool

God I can't wait to see what Legends Z-A brings like this. I definitely see Zygarde getting this boss treatment, would be awesome to see if Xerneas and Yveltal got tis treatment as well. And with Mega Evolution returning, perhaps even Mega Rayquaza as a secret boss.

The battle style,the pokemon structure,skill animations. This series is amazing. This Old about the story and era,but "Gold" about almost everything.

You know you’re screwed when the god of the Pokémon world, Arceus, appears behind you suddenly like “Omae wa mou shindeiru”.

This is it. At long last, the true battle against the Lord himself. It's clearly a test, for Arceus is all-powerful, omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, he exists and will always exist, he wasn't created, he generated himself, he was there since even before the beginning, when everything was just a black void, he was there, all-powerful, almighty, the Original One. He will always be, he will never die, for the Lord is and will always be. He created Dialga and Palkia as embodiments of his eternity and transcendence, Giratina as the embodiment of his incomprehensible being, the Lake trio as the embodiment of his omnipotence, omniscience and omnipresence. Long live the one true God of pokémon, the Yahweh of this amazing multiverse that we love so much.

Arceus: *_"I like you, kid"_* Rei: _"cool but can you send me back to my timeline"_ Arceus: *_"nahhh, enjoy Ancient Japan. Maybe hook up with that 'Irida' chick, she is like your #1 Fan at this point"_* Rei: _"....."_

Didnt expect this fight can be this intense！

Boss battles are so crazy glad they brought a real challenge to the game

So this is what Professor Oak was talking about when he told us not to go into the tall grass without a Pokémon...

Interesting fun to see that Arceus is changed from being the god, but being either an avatar or a sliver of power in form of a Pokemon.

wait wait wait, so after defeating Arceus you get an item that lets your pokemon have all types or it's super effective no matter the type of the other pokémon, like what?

Wanna know something? *Arceus was holding back.*

I love how Arceus just counters. Everything that comes his way

Main character went into another dimension to face Arceus, sick

This battle was wild as fuck. Just beat it. Felt like I was playing Dark Souls with all the dodging 😂

My grandparents explaining their walk to school every day:

Glade you caught all the pokemon. This is the only way I’d be able to see this. I don’t have that kind of patience like the younger me used to have.

I never completed the game or even saw this fight and ending until now. Crazy!

I love how the kid just knows how to play the flute really well no lessons needed lol

I love that cutscene of the glowing stairway it reminds me of diamond and pearl and platinum

Alright that's it I'm buying this game. This game is a masterpiece

That was awesome you did great also Thanks for showing us this cause I'm not going through completing the Pokedex and all that extra stuff to make it to this lol

Thanks been waiting nearly a week. I've beaten the game but I don't have the patience to get this battle.

“Ah yes my child, you have completed every task I asked of you. You resealed the rift in our world, dethroned the false pretender and returned my child to the path of good, and you have catalogued all of my creations. Now, for your final test-“ *YOU MUST FIGHT FOR YOUR FUCKING LIFE*

while i was watching another video of this, Prosofia’s Dialga made their Arceus boss turn away for a second

I'm confused, everyone I see battling arceus had to deplete a full gauge but I only had 1/4 of it to deplete, why is that

Um Arceus? Can I go home now? Arceus? ARCEUS?

Arceus be like: Yo, you catch all the Pokemon? Great! Now catch these hands.

Just realized that when I did this battle with Arceus it was with a badly drifting joycon or two. Thanks, I needed something to make me feel better today and that was it.

Damn can't wait till I get to this part it looks amazing

you can literally see that he is absolutely terrified

The God of Pokémon has Arrived!

Hi Mixeli I hope you do more of this in the future and also keep up the good hard work

MC: Can I go home now Arceas: no, but let's fight again sometime! *fades away* Mc: 😢

Still love how the background music literally starts glitching out towards the end as if the game can’t handle Arceus

The the heck did you manage not to get hit for the most of it-

I love how Arceus's domain music is a reference to the original and the ground in it's domain is a reference to heart gold and soul silver!

Wow, the game launched a short time ago and it's already zeroed unpredictable

Arceus enters Calamity Ganon mode.
